8 Billion Trees was founded with a simple idea: if people can destroy the Earth, they can also help to rebuild it.

At its core, 8 Billion Trees carries out large-scale tree planting and tree conservation operations to fuel positive environmental change and defend habitats for animals, while also caring for displaced and hurt animals by utilizing wildlife sanctuaries and veterinary clinics focused on devastated and deforested areas.  Our goal is to become the most environmentally aware social enterprise on the planet. We don’t simply want to reduce the negative impacts of habitat destruction, deforestation, and irresponsible forestry–we want to use these issues as fuel to completely revitalize what it means to be environmentally friendly. By changing our environment and spreading awareness, we are hoping to make a global change.
